Wet felting is a method of producing felt from wool and other animal fibres. Warm soapy water is applied to layers of wool tops. Repeated agitation and compression causes the fibre to hook together to create a single piece of fabric.
Using a choice of colours you can create lovely pieces – either by actually creating as you go or by experimenting with colour. Once you have your completed piece you can use it to make things (such as a glasses case – this is not part of
the session) or develop it into a picture for framing.
Please bring: any pictures to inspire you plus a bath towel( to soak up excess water) and a long wooden rolling pin.
Please bring your own refreshments. Please email Virginia on virginiamurphy53@yahoo.co.uk or
